Will Smith Breaks His Silence On Death Of ‘Fresh Prince’ Co-Star, James Avery

Will Smith finally broke his silence via Facebook on Sunday night about the death of his close friend and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air co-star, James Avery.

“Some of my greatest lessons in Acting, Living and being a respectable human being came through James Avery,” the actor wrote. “Every young man needs an Uncle Phil. Rest in Peace.”

Smith, who played the late actor’s nephew on the 90’s sitcom, included a photo of the former cast, writing: “This photo was the last time we were together.”

Avery died on New Year’s Eve of complications following open-heart surgery. According to the actor’s manager, the 68-year-old underwent surgery on November 11 and died (Dec. 31) at a hospital in Glendale, Ca.

Rihanna Admits To Having A “Fluctuating Body Type” — And This Is How She Deals With It

Earlier this year, rumors were running rampant that Rihanna was pregnant. It became quickly evident that the singer was not carrying, but we are now learning that the apparent weight gain might’ve have ben due to fluctuation.

During an interview with The Cut, Badgalriri suggested she has a “fluctuating body type,” but that she’s learned how to dress for the variations. “I actually have had the pleasure of a fluctuating body type, where one day I can literally fit into something that is bodycon, and then the next day—the next week—I need something oversized,” she said while promoting her new Fenty x Puma line.

She added, “I need a little crop here and a high-waist there to hide that part, you know?”

The singer went on to explain that because people’s bodies are constantly changing, fashion should not be mundane. “I really pay attention every day when I go into the closet about what’s working for my body that morning,” she explained. “I feel like that’s how everyone should go after fashion, because it’s an individual thing.”

She continued, “And then, if you take it further, it’s like: What week are you having? You having a skinny week? You having a fat week? Are we doing arms this week? We doing legs this week? We doing oversized?”

The fashion designer added, “I love to play with silhouettes as well, but I think it’s important to make sure that you wear the thing that works for your body the best, and that’s flattering.”

Rihanna is not just a fashionista, but she is also wildly confident in every garment she rocks. Confidence is major for the singer, who expressed to the fashion outlet that it’s men in black who rule dressing with confidence.

Yes. This is new for me; this is recent. I love a man in black,” she explained. “It’s so sexy and mysterious; confident and secure—all the things I love about a man. So, I’m into that.”

Ri celebrated the launch of her new line just last week. Click here to see photos.
